Have you ever asked yourself where those plastic pots always present in gardens and stores come from? Those are made as well with the help of what is called plastic pot moulds. These TQ molds are made up of the pots that we use from plastic. The good plastic pot mould also requires the designer to design well, but in fact it must actually be used very well. The molds, in other words, will have so many pots go through on this journey before seeing a problem.
Designers then use computers to design a 3D photo of the mold. This computer generated image allows them to choose what shape and size the press molding will be. In fact, they can play with the designs and pick out one of their best. It then create the mold of correct design which is used to fulfill those requirements using some appliances.
Plastic pot design Mold The plastic pots design molds process used in designing the mold is very simple to some extent but when manufacturing plastic pots mold designers using specific ways of ensure that resulting will be perfect. Over 300 mold for resin tray by TQ were necessary to ensure pots would be the same size, and even a tiny error meant that every Pots produced on mass production looked ridiculous. But then if the moulds aren't right, pots would get wrecked and they wouldn't fit properly.
And CNC machining is a perfect fit for the designers to realize it. It's best not to talk about the difficulties in translating what the hand forms into a language that a computer speaks, which then tells machines how to use machine so neatly — metal is sheared with such precision from steel plates it can be slipped right over and along those cleverly formed tools. This has EDM in it, meaning Electrical Discharge Machining. Moreover, it act as a technique to slice metal into the right configuration by injecting little electrical sparks.
The most common molds type is steel. Strength is the name of their game, steel. This grade can be used in steel punched parts and remain functional. Gas lanterns are also made of aluminium. Also easier for designers and workmens as aluminum is lesser denser than steel. Second to stainless steel, aluminum is long-lasting and does not rust which makes it a good option for molds too.
In a more variety of molded parts we have to put into perfectly shaped plastics post and pot sizes so each application can get one that is made just for it. An interesting one, where designers have to bring out their creativity. Molds for what you want to use different from advertised. Which means you can use whatever compression molding process in any round box small big sunny-green-stockpot shape.
There are common type of machines that we use to do this process is injection molding machine. This machine melts the plastic first and then injects it into a mold. When the hot and molten plastic gets cools, it shape is turned into a strong enough authority TQ compression molding press pot that can be used. Another type of machinery is blow molding machine. It heats up the plastic and blows it into a mold where its pulls out as hollow pots.
